It's a bummer, I'm doing all of this stuff to my car and I won't be able to drive it for 7 weeks starting this weekend:/

Please do yourself a favor and order the ECS stainless steel retaining screws. These wont rust and seize like the OEM ones.

Finally after so many days of it being cold in NYC today was the first real hot day and I got to wash my car myself and it was shining! I was driving through NYC with my windows down and everyone would see my car and really like it. Especially with the cinnamon Seats. First time driving in NYC with my windows down this year. Really thinking of doing a fishbowl now [emoji30][emoji30] my car was looking so clean I haven't seen it that clean since last years summer. I'm also dying for a paint correction. Getting my BBS CH wheels on tomorrow. I'll take pic for you guys. Gonna try to fit some spacers on there too [emoji102]

I've never had a problem with them corroding after I've put fresh ones in. The problem is that people over tighten them. They really only need to be hand tight, maybe a tiny bit more.

Had to code the following using NCS Expert to enable pin 44/45

SL_VO_ANSTEURUNG -> aktiv
PWM_ANSTEUERUNG_SL_VO_RE -> wert_01
PWM_ANSTEUERUNG_SL_VO_LE -> wert_01

Can Angel Eyes be installed on cars optioned with "Adaptive Headlights"?

Pretty sure there are members here with a coupe/M3 who have AEs. Sedans did not come with adaptive lights.

I was always curious about this does anybody know why the coupes got adaptive lights and sedans did not?

There's certain things that BMW did that I can understand like Coupe's getting Park distance control from the factory on more models than sedans because cops have sea pillars that are hard to see out of than the sedans.

So why do coupes get adaptive headlights but not sedans?

I ordered front+rear extended, stainless brake lines for the 135i brakes from RallyRoad. I also bought a Schwaben brake bleeder, and ATE SL6 for a flush.

I've got a little mush in the pedal, so there's some air in the line. Plus the existing fluid looks like iced tea, so it's long overdue. Luckily my commute is 1 very slow mile, and I'm driving the company Camry twice this week.

You can def put AE's on, I have.
